OBSESSIONS: GOYARD X ASSOULINE LETHAL TRUNK

Visionaire Magazine (MSR monthly read) first held high rankings with MSR for a wonderful over-the-mighty-top trunk collaboration brokered with GOYARD. Don’t rest on your laurels and accolades; because other competitors are shimmying in the rear for personal and recognizable shine. It seems luxury publishing giant, ASSOULINE, wanted hearty chunks of GOYARD-collaboration soufflé. The literary house blew away Visionaire from the #1 spot with a jaw-dropping milky-white lock-and-key leather trunk. For a whopping—take a breath—$20,000, the limited-edition can be yours! Products this glitz and high-flown answers why luxurious brands are meeting financial projections during a proclaimed recession. Can you say product-smitten!

In conjunction with the ornate monogramming and pristine metal finishings, the trunk comes well-stocked with scores of literary lifestyle reads by: Lanvin, Balenciaga, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Poiret, Eames (stellar furniture maker), Veuve Clicquot Yellow (best champagne ever!), Yves Saint Laurent, and loads more.

We compiled detailed close-ups to explain why it is worth every single penny of $20,000.
